Yes I am just finishing up the last bits as I work as counsellor so have finished till after Easter and see how I go.. i am told two weeks of nothing and four weeks in car and only walk 100 metres… I will go crazy!!! Had a thought today that we are both having surgery to rectify the effects left behind by cancer!! will be so glad when it is over the waiting is difficult..

Yet another thing we have in common. Multi-focal cancer and mental health professions! I am worried about going stir-crazy, too but I also know from the recuperation period following my mastectomy last summer that there are some gifts in having a much simpler life with fewer balls to juggle.
